Here’s what jumped out at me while reading today’s N&R front-pager on the mounting cost of Greensboro’s cop-related legal battles:
“It’s really a shame,” City Manager Mitchell Johnson said Friday. “It’s been an incredibly unfortunate situation and could have been dealt with more effectively a long time ago if people had made the right decisions.”
Sam Spagnola’s all over it. Johnson could be talking about quite a number of people who didn’t make the “right decisions” in this deal, but you sure get the feeling he’s not talking about himself.
